Vivo’s V23 5G has now been officially announced in Kenya alongside the V23e. The launch event was held today at the Ole Sereni Hotel and was graced by a couple of celebrities including Jaymo Ule Msee, Size 8 Reborn and Chris Kirwa.
The smartphone features some decent technical specs including a spectacular design and dual selfie cameras. It’s also the first 5G device in the country.
The V23 5G showcases a gorgeous flat-sided design that combines metal and glass. The smartphone also employs what Vivo calls Fluorite AG Glass, which gives the device a soft, matte finish to the surface of the glass.
You can get it in two color options including Stardust Black and Sunshine Gold, which impressively enough, can change color when it’s exposed to sunlight for up to 5 to 6 minutes.
Away from the design and onto the front, the smartphone comes equipped with dual selfie cameras including a main 50MP wide camera with eye autofocus support and an 8MP ultrawide lens.
At the back, you get a triple camera setup with a 64MP main rear camera, an 8MP ultrawide sensor, and a 2MP macro lens.
The V23 has a large 6.44-inch 1080o 90Hz AMOLED display and a 4,200mAh battery that supports 44W charging keeping the lights on. The chip of choice is MediaTek’s Dimensity 920, while RAM and storage options include 8/128GB and 12/256GB.
Vivo’s V23 comes at a Ksh. 59,999 price tag and will be available for purchase online as well as in stores countrywide.
